KlebPhaCol

8/8 Lastly, we’ve also made a searchable domain where you can accessibly search through the collection’s data: phage.klebphacol.soton.ac.uk/#/ Thanks to the @UoS_iSolutions from the @unisouthampton for helping us implement this so brilliantly!

7/8 and sooo much more! Please check out the manuscript and our updated website where you can easily request the resource for your questions of interest 🧫🔬🧪🥼 (next scheduled shipment: Feb 2025) klebphacol.org

6/8 Indeed we have a large host-range panel of these pairings (53 phages vs. 74 strains) in two different media types, and in anaerobic/aerobic conditions for ST323-targeting phages (#IBD relevant K.p.).

5/8 Notably, cgLIN typing (Hennart et al 2022) of these strains is also available in the metadata, showing unique STL and LIN codes for KlebPhaCol strains!

4/8 Similarly, we have characterised all 74 strains according to amazing #Klebsiella resources like #Kaptive and #Kleborate, and we’ve created a #Pathogenwatch collection of the K. pneumoniae strains to facilitate comparisons of these strains with yours! pathogen.watch/collection/tdt…

3/8 In the manuscript you can expect to find behavioural, morphologic and genomic descriptions of the 53 Roth phages. In addition to GenBank versions of their genomes, we added additional annotations available in the project’s Figshare: 10.6084/m9.figshare.27794211

1/8 📣Big update: we are very excited to share that the KlebPhaCol @biorxivpreprint is now out! Big shoutout to all those involved in making this happen🙌 Check it out now 👇🏻 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

2/8 The Klebsiella Phage Collection (#KlebPhaCol) is an #opensource (free) resource comprising 53 phages and 74 Klebsiella strains that have been fully characterised. The strains and phages cover a wide diversity, including one newly proposed gut-associated phage order.

This only means one thing: our fourth shipment of #klebphacol is ready to depart 📦 Thanks again to everyone who has shown interest in the collection!

The first few requests for our phages have been fulfilled! Thanks to everyone interested. Any feedback is welcomed 🙌

If you submitted a request for the collection, check your email 📧! We’ve sent the details we need to organise the shipments to all requesters 🎉 Thanks for the patience and interest in #KlebPhaCol

Last call for our first batch-shipment of the collection! Submit your request for the collection on or before the 30th of Nov to receive it on December this year 🔗 in bio Any requests submitted after the 30th of Nov will be filed for shipment in April 2024.

Thank you to everyone who has shown interest in #KlebPhaCol so far! We are currently busy preparing all the phage to send your way by December 2023😊 You still have time to request your stocks if you haven’t already: klebphacol.org/request-form

Attention Kaptive peeps 📢 We want to hear from YOU about how you use Kaptive and what you would like to see in future versions to help guide our development. If you have a spare minute, check out our form: forms.gle/EEQz5e5fNrcTjo… #klebsiella #acinetobacter #capsule #typing

Hey you at the @EvergreenPhage !! We have prepared 1000x concentrate of samples from the collective Phage Hunt! Everyone gets a vial, or two 😊 May this sample bring you the #superphage, good luck😘 ❤️Thank you for making this sample extra sphecial ❤️

Last day at @EvergreenPhage ! Catch me at the poster session to talk about @KlebPhaCol

If you have sent us a form/query, we will get back to you soon!

Come talk to @DaniRothschild today at the @Evergreen_Phage poster session to learn more about #KlebPhaCol ! If you are not here in person you can also see the poster here: figshare.com/articles/poste…

We are excited to be on our way to #Evergreen International Phage Meeting in Olympia @Evergreen_Phage ! Find us there to talk more about #KlebPhaCol and share your interests with us.
